BlackVoices is at it again: top 11 "geniuses" in hip-hop

http://bv.channel.aol.com...iusgallery

The panel that chose these 11, as a whole, should be arrested for making few of these picks.

I hear great things about Jean Grae, but still.

No PE.

No De La.

No ATCQ.

This list is illegitimate.

The entire music staff at BlackVoices should be fired.

I love Mind Playing Tricks on Me. One of the best songs ever recorded. But one great song does make a genius out of Geto Boyz. And seriously...Jean Grae? If they're just gonna put a coupl'a token females on there, why not MC Lyte instead? Cha, cha, cha!
